Default My tea kettle just died

It did strike me that the tinny ones would ruin a ceramic glasstop or
the plastic parts would melt if ever allowed to boil down for a length
of time. I do that about once a year. The only problem with the never
been used non-stick sauce pan so far there is a thin oily film I can't
get rid of and the lip is the wrong direction for pouring. I pour from
the left hand and the lip is the other direction. It's too late for me
to learn to switch hands. I hope there are some good kettles still
around. I guess I'll have to hit the gourmet kitchen stores or find a
sauce pan for the left hand. I do like how fast water comes to a boil
in the sauce pan and it fits a set of burners that don't get any use.
